*See page 12 for recommended conditions

Choosing a Good Location
Place the Klecard in a location with adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build up.
You will need at least 20 cm of front space to fully open the tray.
Do not place the Klecard near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject
to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
Due to the low noise emitted during operations, Klecard can be placed in your workshop and
on your desk in the office as well.
While unpacking your Klecard, inspect the carton to ensure that no damage has occurred during
shipping. Make sure that all supplied accessories are included with your unit.
The following items should be included:
• Klecard printer
• Resin black ribbon
• Cardboard core for ribbon (2x) (one installed)
• Plate for terminal block tags
• Plate for cable markers
• Plate for flat media
• Power supply
• Power cord
• USB Cable
• CD with User Guide
Save the carton and packing materials. They will come in handy later if you ever need to
transport the Klecard and/or any of its parts and accessories.

Human interface
A serial 2x16 character LCD display is present on the Klecard. The on/off push button is
used to power the printer. The Klecard has a Level VI efficiency power supply so that the
unit consumes virtually no power when off and it is energy star compliant.
A separate Operator button is used to control the tray and to access factory tests.
This button is working with the LED under firmware control; this LED is illuminated when
the tray-media sensor is detecting media.
